    I had the same problem as Roland. I could not find WebBrowser in the toolbox, and none of the tips above worked for me.

    What I did instead: I added a Button control where I wanted my WebBrowser control. Then I manually changed the code in the Designer.cs file to replace the button with a WebBrowser instance. Once the control is on the form, I can reposition it normally in the GUI editor.

    A bit clunky, but maybe this workaround can help others as well.

    I'm really sorry to say, but you must recreate your winforms project with the version which has the .NET Framework.

    Hi RolandLffler,

    The web browser control works in windows form project. So please confirm if your project is winform project.

    And if it doesn't work, please try to right-click the toolbox, then click "Reset Toolbox".

    Best Regards,
    Dylan
